Closed Ban UK visas for citizens of countries who don’t take back illegal migrants

Closed on

A large proportion of illegal migrants in the UK are economic migrants. We believe they must be returned to their country of origin to prevent further cost to the public purse.

We urge the Government to stop issuing UK visas to countries who refuse to take back illegal migrants in the UK who are from their countries. We believe the rights for their citizens to obtain UK visas should be removed and that no one from that country should be allowed into the UK if their country of origin does not accept the return of illegal migrants.
